Independent and short filmmakers face a massive problem today: traditional streaming platforms require thousands of watch hours or massive subscriber counts just to unlock monetization. By the time a creator qualifies, their budget is completely exhausted.
My partner Kune Sagar and I (Peruka Srinivas) decided to fix this. We built Chitti Thera (https://chittithera.com), a Pay-Per-View Mobile Theatre OTT platform designed exclusively for indie creators and short films.
The Chitti Thera Model: Pure Revenue from Day One We removed all algorithmic gating. On our platform, creators earn pure revenue starting from their very first single view. There are no monetization thresholds to fulfill.
We wanted to make the business of filmmaking transparent and easy:
Creator Analysis Panel: Creators can track their views and revenue in real-time.
Low Minimum Withdrawal: Creators can withdraw their funds once they reach a minimum of just ₹100.
Studio Backing: We are more than just a platform. If you become a creator in Chitti Thera and successfully stream your first film with us, we step in to produce your second film.
Strict Verification & Zero Piracy We have strict guidelines to protect creators. Filmmakers submit their films directly through our website (https://chittithera.com/contact-form/). Once we receive a film, we review it manually for copyright issues and reused content. We strictly do not encourage reused content. Once verified, we send a confirmation email, and the film begins streaming on Chitti Thera.
If you are an independent filmmaker looking to earn revenue from your first view, we invite you to join us.
